I need to position a layer 6 px left and 6 px bottom relative to browser
window, that will always stay there as I resize the browser window or scroll
down the page.
I am trying to use absolute positioning but it will only recalculate
position when I hit the refresh button. I can do this in other web designers
like dreamweaver.

You would have to use custom javascript to achieve this.

Not the way you describe, however, you can't do it. Absolute positioning
will not achieve what you are after either. The only way to get it would be
to reposition the layer on each window scroll. There are 3rd party
extensions for DW that will do that. I don't know if there are any for FP
that will.

Thank you.
I've used DW quite sometime ago, and you are right I did use JScript. But
still it is a shame that FP2003 will not be up to some features....
Still, thank you for your help. It was rue lifesaver.
